Get ready for an early taste of summer swimming fun! The Northbrook Sports Center Pool will be open Memorial Day weekend. The pool is scheduled to open on Saturday, May 25 with the following preseason hours:

Throughout the summer, the Northbrook Park District pools will host fun events for the community, including Super Soak Sundays, Wacky Wet Wednesdays, and a Customer Appreciation Night. The Park District will continue its partnership with the Northbrook Police Department to offer the free National Night Out event in August. And, Northbrook residents can receive Glencoe resident rates on beach tokens, sailing lessons and trellis rentals at the Glencoe Beach.

“We have hired and are training pool staff in anticipation of a great summer,” said Angus Shields, Assistant Manager of Athletics and Aquatics with the Northbrook Park District. “We continue to add more ways for customers to enjoy the pools, including new events, such as an Open Water Scuba Course, Scuba Challenge and Snorkel with Santa.”

The Park District also offers group and private swim instruction, water fitness classes, diving lessons, lifeguard and junior lifeguard instruction, pool parties and private evening rentals of the pools. Season passes allow unlimited pool admission, discounts on classes and admission to special events. Passes are on sale at Northbrook Park District Registration Offices and online with an Early Registration Discount until May 12. For more information, visit nbparks.org or call 847-291-2980.
